Gene: [19q133/CGB] chorionic gonadotropin, beta polypeptide;
|
FAG |
[1] Beta subunits of chorionic gonadotropin and luteinizing hormone
(GEM:19q133/LHB) are supposed (Boorstein-1982)
to be encoded by
components of the gene cluster containing at least eight genes
(pseudogenes). At least six (Graham-1987) or seven
(Talmadge-1983,1984) of them are classified as CGB genes; all of them
originate from a single ancestral LHB gene. For details on cloning and
expression of CGB/LHB genes, as well as the structure of their peptide
products, see the review by W.W.Chin in: Molecular cloning of
hormone genes, eds. JF Habener, New Jersey, 1987, p.137-172.
[2] Gene for the chorionic gonadotropin alpha subunit (which is also alpha subunit for three other glycoprotein hormones: thyroid-stimulating, follicle-stimulating, and luteinizing hormones) is located in chr 6q; see GEM:06q/CGA." |
